Welcome to America! 

I genuinely wonder how Republicans/Trump/Conservatives can be so outright ignorant, stupid, and villainous and people still support them. Even if you trim away literally everything else Trump has done...this nonsense with how he's responding to the Coronavirus is...bafflingly bad. Like, it's so clearly obviously stupid. At first I wondered if maybe liberals were just exaggerating what he said or skipping out on details to make him look bad (Liberals do that, too; not as often as conservatives but they do it), but nope! 

Your US president is basically plugging his ears and going LALALALALALA CAN'T HEAR YOU. 

Your President. 

The person people voted for. 

The person people chose to represent them. 

Is acting like a 3 year old who doesn't want to eat his broccoli. 

This is not how ANYONE in ANY position of power should EVER be acting under ANY circumstances. How he managed to make it to the highest seat in the land despite having the cognition of a child, the maturity of a teen, and the unearned confidence of a first-year psych major is absolutely baffling. And the fact that he's likely to get reelected in 2020 saddens me to know end. 

Seriously, at this point we might just need to shut the US down and turn it back on again if this is how things are going. (Canada has Doug Ford as the premier of Ontario, so we're not doing much better, and we almost voted in Scheer as PM - would have given he won the popular vote, but Trudeau won more seats.)

I'm glad we didn't elect Scheer. Fatso Ford's bad enough.

If more coronavirus deaths occur in America under Trump's boneheaded plan, and unfortunately they very likely will, then criminal negligence resulting in death can be added to the list of charges against Trump. If he gets the virus next then it's own fault for being so incompetent and immoral.

What upsets me is that...we kinda DID vote in Scheer. but due to a technicality in the election process, Trudeau won again. 

I actually like Trudeau, I think a lot of the hate he gets is pretty silly.

I agree, even for the whole brownface fiasco. Dan Akroyd did brownface for a gag in Trading Places, and we still hold him in high regard.

This is an actions vs words situation, I Feel. Yeah, brownface isn't cool...but he's spent much of his political career trying to help folks from around the world as best he can, with right now and the issues in Syria/Middle East proving he's not racist, he just made a bad choice in high school. Seriously, what person didn't say or do something terrible in high school? It's high school, teenagers are shitheads. and...you know...people grow and mature and change as they grow up. You can say or do something stupid in your youth and grow up to be a compassionate, intelligent person. Trudeau is that. a compassionate, intelligent person. 

IT's a shame that Canada as a whole is doing some pretty shitty things in regards to the natives. but we have kinda always been shitty to native tribes. Not an excuse, but the sad reality.

Any anti-war candidate? Trump was the biggest anti-war candidate during his campaign in 2016. Promised to undo all the mess Bush and Obama did in the middle east by simply bring troops back home. But now he did a 180 and increased troops in middle east.

That is absolute gold.

All parts are amazing. The sanders is fairly basic. The fact it says 20 is amazing. Oh and all the blue.

Whoever made the jersey - can see the future. And trolled the hell out of people.

I confess I don't get it at all.

He's a man who has literally made a name for himself by the tenuous link to reality he has and his hilarious propensity to lie about everything...how could anyone actually believe him when he says he wants to end the war?

No problem with that.  It requires knowledge of older football players and their teams.

There is a famous football player. His name is Barry Sanders.  He played for the detroit lions.

His jersey number (The number on the back) was 20.

Garth brooks (famous country guy) was in detroit and wearing a barry Sanders Jersey. Various Trump fans saw the "blue" the "Sanders" and the "20" and thought it was a political reference to Berry Sanders running in 2020.

When it was simply just a detroit jersey of Barry Sanders.

Alright, so I DID get it, I just couldn't confirm it. I know Bernie Sanders is running in 2020, I know Dems are blue, and I know that's a football jersey. I also know Garth Brooks is a country dude (And almost certainly a republican, since that's sort of how it goes, but there are exceptions). I just didn't KNOW there was a dude named Barry Sanders that was #20. I sort of assumed based on people's responses, but I couldn't find out if there was becuase I don't know where to look. I did google it but apparently had no idea what terms to use becuase it came up with nothing.

Just woke up with this great news. US and Taliban made a peace deal to end the 18+ year old Afghan war.

I'm starting to believe him as much as Pachter - meaning that when Trumps says anything, the opposite must be true.

Probably my single favourite answer in the whole thread. Maybe the whole website.
